Cardiff Burnley match preview

Cardiff has two points fewer than the 16th-placed Burnley, which won for the first time in new season in the previous round and that is something that the Welsh still waiting for. We should add that their last head-to-head took place three seasons ago in the Championship and then they drew both matches.

Cardiff

Fact that none of the two teams has managed to win their head-to-head played away in the 21st century is very interesting, which also encourages Cardiff fans ahead of Sunday match. They secretly hope that their team can win Burnley, which would be the first victory in their returnee season in the Premiership given that Cardiff in previous six rounds only managed to drew two and lost four matches, which is why it occupies the penultimate place in the table.

True, in last three rounds Cardiff had very difficult schedule and it was no surprise it lost to Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City, while near the end of August they were eliminated from the League Cup after losing at home to second-division Norwich 3-1. Right because of that we are certain that manager Warnock will make several changes in the team for match with Burnley, especially as out of action are due to injuries defender Peltier, midfielder Gunnarsson and forward Mendez-Laing.

Probable lineups Cardiff: Etheridge – Ecuele Manga, Morrison, Bamba, Bennett – Arter, Camarasa, Ralls, Hoilett – Reid –Zohore

Burnley

After great results made last season which they ended at the seventh place in the Premiership we can say that Burnley didn’t start well the new season, where their debut in the Europa League was especially weak. Burnley started competing in it from the second qualifying round and won Scottish Aberdeen and Turkish Basaksehir, both after extra time, but they succumbed to Greek Olympiacos in the play-off.

Burnley had opened the English championship with away drew with Southampton, which was followed with four defeats in a row that took them to the penultimate place in the table before facing Bournemouth at home. It seemed that the situation raised anger in team led by manager Dyche as they won the match by even 4-0, but last week they again underperformed as they lost in the League Cup to second-division Burton 2-1. Let’s add that out of action due are injured goalkeeper Pope, stopper Gibson and midfielder Brady.

Probable lineups Burnley: Hart – Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor – Lennon, Cork, Hendrick, Gudmundsson – Vydra – Vokes

Verdict:

After Burnley won at home in the previous round for the first time this season, Cardiff fans believe their team could do the same thing on Sunday, especially as Burnley won the last time at Cardiff City Stadium 18 years ago.
